Torq Longboard 8'0
A short longboard, sometimes called a mini mal. More glide than a funboard, and still easy to carry, turn and paddle out through the waves. It catches waves long before they break, which is what you want on the small days.
A medium entry rocker and a full outline give it glide, and a quick middle with a slightly pulled-in tail stops it feeling stiff. The 8'0 comes as a thruster for a funboard feel.
This one is the 8'0 at 60 litres, in white. As a rough guide it floats a beginner up to about 70 kg, or an intermediate surfer up to about 100 kg.
